Very bad photo of the new exhaust hangging session and the rear cut bumper, note, all the white on the bumper is from where i took the angle grinder to the bumper support. Comments suggestions? i'll have to take some new better photos as shes got lower again in light of the above i've decided to either make up some chassis rail (sliders!) or just fork out for some P5's...

I honestly never thought I'd say this, but the more I see MX-5's like yours, the closer I'm getting to buying one

Nice!
I have a really nasty looking '95. Too ashamed to put up pics the paint and interior look so bad. The rings in my motor are so worn it burns a ton of oil and when I remove the oil filler cap it spits oil all over the place! I'm sure the compression is down quite a bit. I have too many other projects to have time or space for this to fix anything so I just put oil in and drive it.
All that aside the car is fun as hell to drive. I put on some really nice wheels (6UL) and tyres (Hankook Ventus R-S3 in 225) and excellent suspension that makes this the best handling car I've ever driven. My suspension is a racing beat front ARB, Eibach springs, Koni Race shocks, Flying Miata bumpstops and rear shock mounts.
When I've knocked off a few projects my plan is to put a JDM (cheap/low mileage) motor in it, strip it out and basically have a track hack.
TMI, I'm sure, but it might be useful ...
